About Gro bags

What is a grobag? baby sleeping bag?
A grobag? baby sleeping bag is a wearable blanket that will keep your baby at a comfortable temperature all night long. A safe and sound night's sleep for your baby means peace of mind and more sleep for you!

6 years ago, baby sleeping bags were a little known form of bedding in the UK. Convinced of the inherent safety benefits and the related improvement in sleep for both child and parent, in 2000, Rob and Ouvrielle Holmes, working in close partnership with the Foundation for the Study of Infant Deaths (FSID), introduced grobag? baby sleeping bags to the UK.

As a result of grobag's continued work with FSID and dedication to safety, grobag? are now the only baby sleeping bags to be recommended by FSID, our official partner in promoting safer sleeping for babies.

Sizes, togs and what to wear
Choosing a size
An ideal time to start using a grobag? baby sleeping bag is when your baby weighs more than 7 lbs (0-6 mths size). It is very important to check that your baby?s head cannot pass through the neck-hole when the grobag? baby sleeping bag is fastened for use. Please remember that these are recommendations only as all babies are different.

Make sure that your baby?s legs and feet have freedom to move about, by ensuring that the grobag? baby sleeping bag is long enough for your baby. The lengths of grobag? baby sleeping bags (from shoulder to bottom) are:
0-6 m 76cm
6-18 m 94cm
18-36m 112cm
3-6yrs 128cm



Choosing a Tog
A tog measurement is a European warmth rating: the higher the tog, the warmer the product. grobag? baby sleeping bags are available in three tog ratings.

Please note: A number of external factors determine the tog rating of the sleeping bag that should be used. These include the quantity of clothing the baby is wearing, the temperature of the infant?s bedroom, the baby?s health and the amount of bedding necessary to keep an individual infant warm ? this may vary as it does for adults.

Check your baby regularly to ensure they do not overheat.

Your grobag? baby sleeping bag comes with a free nursery thermometer to help you select which tog baby sleeping bag to use and what sleepwear to put your baby in.
